Does anyone actually still defend him? Or believe him? How the Glazers can prioritise sanctioning money to pay Ashton to brief Ed on such complex statements is baffling.
No they don't. Did you not notice how little the fan base engaged with the recent press release on ensuring this coming summer transfer window is a good one. It has all been heard before at this stage.Does anyone actually still defend him? Or believe him?

Good point. Not many fans reacted to his piece in ESPN.No they don't. Did you not notice how little the fan base engaged with the recent press release on ensuring this coming summer transfer window is a good one. It has all been heard before at this stage.
Only way Woodward turns this around is if somehow he proves a lot of people wrong with sticking with Ole as manager and the club does return to success. How likely do you think that is?
I wouldn't believe the Lord's prayer out of his mouth.Good point. Not many fans reacted to his piece in ESPN.
He wasn't brought in as a Spin Doctor for Ed though as much as you want to believe it, his job over time is to make sure enough of the positive press gets out there where currently it's well hidden or not reported at all, and only the negative often made-up stuff stuff gets out, as you may well have noticed!I know. I thought him hiring a Spin Doctor was admittance that every time he opens his mouth he's inviting mockery, but clearly not.
Why would United need an alternative stadium?What is putting off investors/buyers is we need 200 million Pounds to repair Old Trafford and we would need to find alternative ground until the repair is done.
The damage has been truly done.
When these parasites are gone there will be nothing left.

How would the player know that?Ed is a goon. One of my mates is talking to a ex United player, at Chelsea game today, and said Ed messed up interview with Paul Mitchell. Mitchell did a really good presentation etc but all Ed could talk about was shirt sales.
Aaaarghhhh
I'm sure people know things, especially people have close connections to the club. But we.were linked very heavily with Mitchell before he took up his new role with RB. Annoying. Imo, if he and Rangnick were to be secured, we could get back to glory days.How would the player know that?

I just refuse to believe someone like Ed, who obviously is a clever guy, could have wanted things to go as they are and would have interviewed people. But yea, you never know with Ed.I seriously doubt we wanted to hire a DOF
I doubt Ed was talking about shirt sales with a potential DoF.Ed is a goon. One of my mates is talking to a ex United player, at Chelsea game today, and said Ed messed up interview with Paul Mitchell. Mitchell did a really good presentation etc but all Ed could talk about was shirt sales.

Probably talking about players who can sell shirts. That's believable.I doubt Ed was talking about shirt sales with a potential DoF.
What did this ex-player think was so good about Paul Mitchell's presentation?Ed is a goon.

Apologies, there were no mentions about what was in the presentation.What did this ex-player think was so good about Paul Mitchell's presentation?
Did your mate not think to ask? I'd have grilled him, being a nosey git like.Apologies, there were no mentions about what was in the presentation.
He text me, whilst he was having alcoholic beverages before he went into the ground...I can understand why he never asked.Did your mate not think to ask? I'd have grilled him, being a nosey git like.
In other words we can look forward to one or maximum two big signings, with maybe a 16-year-old 6th choice goalkeeper as a bonus.Tweet

What is this twat's obsession with the amount of players we're linked to?
Particularly baffling because it's so easy to have people from the club "leak" transfer related info at the drop of a hat, completely irrelevant, however is clearly being used as a metric to display how much engagement occurs online due to that shit.What is this twat's obsession with the amount of players we're linked to?
It's a nod to "most talked about club" and winning social media. I think.Tweet

It's a shameless 'look at us' comment towards the shareholders and sponsors - "it doesnt matter how shite we are look at how much attention we get from the media - its definitely worth working with us." It's all he, and the board, care about.Tweet

This guy gets it. There are no 6 incomings, it's going to be another copy of the previous two summer windows - 3 x signings, one of whom will be a kid/squad player. Only certain types of managers will be happy to accept such limited reinforcements during a supposed major rebuild, and Ole is one of them. The exact reason he was hired. A lot of fans will still go into the summer expecting big things though, zero critical thinking.In other words we can look forward to one or maximum two big signings, with maybe a 16-year-old 6th choice goalkeeper as a bonus.
I have a feeling we might end up with Sancho and Dembele, and that the positions of Upamecano, Telles, Partey and Grealish will be ignored.
I mean, if the two are Sancho and Grealish does it really matter?'Disciplined'. Relatively transparent corporate speak for 1 or 2 players, which should be enough to kill the '6 incomings, who will they be?' thread. We all know it won't though.
I was making a point about the stupidity of that particular thread, not the principle. I'm totally on-board with 2 quality signings and think that the right players would be enough for us to challenge again.I mean, if the two are Sancho and Grealish does it really matter?
Don't know why people are getting upset about things that haven't happened yet...
Agreed. Rome wasn’t built in a day and as long as we’re making progress and there’s a long term plan, I’m happy with two solid signings.I was making a point about the stupidity of that particular thread, not the principle.

Media interactions generates money for the club. So when people say media unrest amongst fans doesn't work, they're incorrect.Tweet

Hopefully it is just the perception being put out the to the market, rather than the "we can buy anyone for any price" rubbish he was spouting before which had clubs ready to rip us off.'Disciplined'. Relatively transparent corporate speak for 1 or 2 players, which should be enough to kill the '6 incomings, who will they be?' thread. We all know it won't though.
That might be a byproduct of the statement but I think it's largely genuine and, as I've said above, if it's the right 2 players (ie Sancho and Grealish) I'd be more than satisfied. We're genuinely not that far off and need quality over quantity.Hopefully it is just the perception being put out the to the market, rather than the "we can buy anyone for any price" rubbish he was spouting before which had clubs ready to rip us off.
Go another summer and not bringing in another striker, I doubt that.That might be a byproduct of the statement but I think it's largely genuine and, as I've said above, if it's the right 2 players (ie Sancho and Grealish) I'd be more than satisfied.

I'm sure we could get by somehow with Rashford, Martial, Sancho, Greenwood, James and Grealish.Go another summer and not bringing in another striker, I doubt that.
Grealish for 90m .....Grealish for 90m, Dembele for 60m and Pogba out for 100. Calling it now
So no Sancho?Grealish for 90m, Dembele for 60m and Pogba out for 100. Calling it now
What’s your stake then?Grealish for 90m, Dembele for 60m and Pogba out for 100. Calling it now
I'm pretty sure they'll want more than what we paid for Maguire.What’s your stake then?
No chance Grealish will go for 90M!
